Anne Louise Avery
Listen as the fox slowly and deftly unbinds his whole pack of tricks—his flattery and fine words, his warm and sugary russet charm, his bold-faced blandishments. He has brought forth a spool of raw lies and spun them into a glittering web of truth to trap them all. Every last one of them.
Anne Louise Avery, Reynard the Fox

Christine de Pizan
Wealth takes no account of kindness, good sense, beauty, or strength, nor is she concerned about valor, goodness, or eminent qualities. To such people she is hardly a friend, and when she is, that situation usually does not last long.
Christine de Pizan, The Book of the Mutability of Fortune (Volume 52)
